Autumn was settling in, the sky high and clear.
In a season made for getting away, viwit planned a journey into the mountains and waters for everyone who had been working hard day after day.
Two weeks ago, we stepped away from busy schedules, left behind the laboratories, production floors, and offices, and headed for the foothills of the Taihang Mountains—to spend two days immersed in the colors, cliffs, and waters of autumn.
Bound for Baoquan
周At 6:30 on Saturday morning, two buses set off right on time.
Some of us were still sleepy, others already full of anticipation, as we made our way deep into the Taihang Mountains. Outside the windows, the city slowly gave way to open fields, and the fields to rolling mountain ranges.
Some caught up on sleep. Some chatted. Snacks made their way from row to row. And some had already started taking photos before we were halfway there.
Five hours passed almost unnoticed amid conversation and laughter.
Then the doors opened, and the mountain breeze rushed in.
Cool, crisp, unmistakable.
Yes—autumn had arrived.
Listening to the Wind Above the Cliffs
Our first stop was Yatianxia Scenic Area.
Here, the magnificent red cliffs of the Taihang Mountains rise dramatically from the landscape. As the cable car climbed higher, layer after layer of crimson rock unfolded beneath us, like the ancient rings of the earth laid bare.
At the top, wind swept upward from the valley, carrying with it the clean, bracing air of the mountains.
Walking along the cliffside skywalk, we found ourselves between two worlds: a vast drop on one side, and mountain upon mountain on the other.
For a moment, the fatigue of work seemed to disappear into the wind.
All that remained was the immense openness of sky and earth.
Into the Canyon, Where Emerald Waters Reflect the Peaks
On the second day, we ventured into the hidden canyon landscapes of Baoquan.
Famed for its abundant springs and lively waters, Baoquan is celebrated for its remarkable waterfalls across the Central Plains.
Here, water seems to appear at every turn—a waterfall after a few steps, a quiet pool just a little farther on.
Jianlong Waterfall plunges from a height of more than 300 meters, its roar echoing through the canyon as cool mist fills the air.
Nearby, the emerald waters of the pools lie still as mirrors, reflecting red cliffs and green peaks. It is as if the mountains themselves had tipped over a palette of colors and let them spill into the water.
In that moment, the weariness of the journey was washed away by the sound of falling water.
Only the quiet music of the landscape remained.
Mountains mirrored in water, and we, for a moment, inside the painting
Night Falls, Lights Glow
A good journey deserves a good place to rest—and, of course, good food.
For the night, we stayed at the Wyndham Garden Hotel near the High-Speed Rail West Station.
Opening the door to our rooms, we found the city lights stretching out below, while the autumn night carried a faint, refreshing sweetness in the air.
Dinner was every bit as satisfying.
The tables were filled with generous dishes, with local specialties arriving one after another—a fitting end to a full day in the mountains.
One Journey Through Mountains and Waters, One Journey Worth Remembering
Two days and one night.
Not too long, not too short.
But long enough for us to watch waterfalls together, walk the mountain trails together, share breakfast at the hotel, and sing our way home on the bus.
At work, we stand side by side.
On the road, we share the same mountains and rivers.
The best view is rarely found only at the destination.
More often, it is found in the people who travel beside you.
Until next time, Baoquan.
Wherever the next journey takes us, we will keep moving forward—together
